LION’S DEN

[Intro]
Uh I’m not feeling so alive man
Thank God mama told me I could touch the sky man
I been looking up and praying for the stars aligning
You could never get me
Read the wall with the writing
Uh do you care to enlighten
Understand we ain’t never go down without fighting
Uh that’s a product of environment
You could never get us read the wall with the writing

[Chorus]
Uh Word around word around word around town
Foes got mad when I wouldn’t pipe down
Everybody run up cause they homes run down ay
Some nights it’s been hard for me to come down look
Gun down niggas 'til it’s sundown
If you saw where I’m from you’d be dumbfound
Recognize that I’m really going dumb now
A nigga lost wishing I could say that I’m found
Uh Word around word around word around town
Foes got mad when I wouldn’t pipe down
Everybody run up cause they homes run down ay
Some nights it’s been hard for me to come down look
Gun down niggas 'til it’s sundown
If you saw where I’m from you’d be dumbfound
Recognize that I’m really going dumb now
A nigga lost wishing I could say that I’m found
I'm found

[Verse 1]
Whereabouts will I find a route
It’s gon' wear me out
I been fearing today there he was
He was calling out
Couldn’t calm him down told him help on the way
Aired it out cause I heard him out he was hurting now
He was startled afraid
Bowed down and we started to pray
'Bout now's when we parted our ways

[Verse 2]
Introverted this intro unheard of done entered the lion's den
Beast on the beat with fire at the mouth like it’s leviathan
They murmuring I ain't the top then I'm certain they lying then
I been treading in some deep waters like Poseidon
Piss pouring, waves seismic, this Jordan, I’m hiking
Spitting food for thought man this call for the Heimlich
Need me some people who ain't in-between like hyphens
I'm applying the pressure but these niggas ain’t hiring uh
I’m staying grounded done came from mud like a hydrant
I was gone, black out, back now
Not made for the background
Been getting numbers pressed pound
Niggas pressed cause I’m next and the best out
Hence the 2-3 on my back
But my hoops dreams fell flat like it’s 2D
'Bout to see
'Bout to feel my wrath
Matter fact

[Chorus]
Word around word around word around town
Foes got mad when I wouldn’t pipe down
Everybody run up cause they homes run down ay
Some nights it’s been hard for me to come down look
Gun down niggas 'til it’s sundown
If you saw where I’m from you’d be dumbfound
Recognize that I’m really going dumb now
A nigga lost wishing I could say that I’m found
